Happy Memorial Day Everyone,

I haven't had such a good silver find these last couple weeks, but that all turned around this weekend. It seems like I'll have a nice box once a month at best...
Here's a pic of that amazing Half Dollar box.

Can you see an unexpected coin in the box? Also I'm not sure what it is, please comment if you know what it is.

This box reminded me of the ones I used to see weekly back in 2010.

It was 2009 when boxes like that went the way of the Dodo bird in my parts. Nice score.

Very nice box! I don't think I've ever seen a Loomis box with that many enders. How many silvers did you pull from it?

I haven't found any banks that use NF strings all of mine switched to Loomis. It sucks...

Is the end result a secret?

There's a foreign half dollar sized CN coin in Row 3/Slot 6. If I could read the legend, I'd tell you what it is. Off hand, it could be a coin from Central America. Mexico?

Sorry CNC I couldn't resist. I actually didn't keep track of the total otherwise I would have posted it. It was more than 25 pieces but I don't have the specifics beyond that.

I haven't opened the roll but when I get home i'll take a picture of the roll. No sense in opening a roll like that. It's more fun to have it as an ender :)

Hehe, I'm sure there are even more exciting goodies waiting inside that roll.....but I guess we will never know now, or will we? ;)

Time to get my eyes checked, I thought the writing was oriental characters... And I had the physical roll in hand to inspect it, wow.

NHsorter, thanks for the help.
